Before the people, either of the Athens, or of any other part of the British dominions, can ...become theatrical, they must have a little more THE MODERN ATHENS.

The national debt, and the immense public establishments, are the real causes why there are not only no Shakspeares now, but why the heroes of the old Shakspeare have given place to the wooden or real horses of a more buf- fooning race. The people must not only work, but work hard, during the live-long day ; and when they have an hour which they can snatch from the abridged civilities of social life, for the purpose of looking at a theatrical exhibition, they very natu- rally prefer that which costs them no labour of thought and which makes them laugh, to that which would impose upon them fatigue of the mind in addition to fatigue of the body.
